At first I thought this was going to be Caroline Casey from KPFA in Berekeley, CA. Nope, this is another woman who has quite a story to tell, I'm not going to spoil it for you.
Motivation can be hard. Putting your inner noise aside is even harder but if you can do it you might find the help you seek.

Coconut Oil Hair Care Tutorial Videos
Hair is a powerful subject for women. It touches emotions, rights and definition. There is a genre of user generated videos strictly about hair and hair care.
Many are making the transition from processed to natural natural hair:
There is even a sub-genre of coconut oil based hair care videos. I need to help out the folks that don't cook. Not the stuff you put in alcoholic drinks. Not the stuff in the pink cans at the supermarket. No, really not at all the same thing.
You buy true coconut oil at health food stores. There is nothing in the jar except 100% coconut oil. This is Andrea with her Coconut Oil Demonstration:
Not only are folks talking about coconut oil but they throw in a little something extra. You can do it with Saran Wrap:
If you can't find it in the store then you can make some at home. This is TheWomanInside demonstration video on how to crack that nut.
Each one, teach one.

Women's Media Center - Our Voices Recorded
I will tell anyone, anytime that the value of women speaking out cannot be ignored. If mainstream media continues to filter us out then we must do everything we can to be seen and heard.
This is a video from the Women's Media Center.
The Women's Media Center create their own advocacy activities, create media and train other women on how to do the same.

Fannie Lou Hamer - PSA Project
This is a examples of how women can do their own advocacy PSA about issues that they care about. This my example of taking the words of hate and having a historical figure refute them. This is the magnificent Fannie Lou Hamer.
So this is a topic area that I identified as a need that can be addressed. We don't have to wait for M$M to get it cuz it brings them no profit to do so. Where I live they no longer show PSAs on commercial television unless the show is so bad that they can't get advertising for it.
The tools are simple. Audio, photo animation program that could be built in your video editing program and text. We have the power, let the change come forth.

Mena Trott At TED 2006
We are all running around doing, doing and trying to make the invisible real.
We rank and catalog what is and is not important. Worse, others who barely understand us rank and dispose of what they do not understand.
In this 2006 TED Talk Mena Trott makes the case that blogs and bloggers are a valid and essential part of the storytelling tradition. Mena is one of the founders of Six Apart. For more information and inspiration visit http://www.ted.com
